There is no such thing as the perfect grass for all sites, however because it is to be a permanent feature you need to take some time to consider what each type of grass will do best in your situation.
What to consider when ordering your turf.
Your budget
Your soil type
Any issues that shade may cause (refer to the shade article in the “Useful information” page)
The appearance you expect to create (manicured, a soft play area for children, or a more “natural look”)
The amount of wear you expect on the grass
How much time you have to maintain your lawn
Water availability
It is always best to discuss your needs with us so you achieve the lawn that best suits your needs
